Car boot sale of the Beaucé festival committee

The charm of a village car boot sale

The Beaucé car boot sale is an annual event organized by the festival committee of this rural commune in the Pays Fougerais. Private sellers offer a varied range of second-hand items: clothes, toys, trinkets, crockery, books, small furniture and various flea market items. The atmosphere is that of an authentic country car boot sale, where the pace is peaceful and the exchanges are warm between neighbours and bargain hunters.
